I am considering getting an OLED tv. It crossed my mind that I watch a ton of old shows & movies on DVD & Blu Ray. Given the aspect ratio of old movies & classic tv, and the black bars on the sides, will that create burn in? I usually only watch an hour or two each week but sometimes get on a...
I had to move last August under duress. Lousy landlord. Bottomline, I boxed my tv up very quickly. Just a large U-Haul box & I didn’t secure on the truck. It was a disaster. The tv has sat in storage until this past week. It’s a 55” Vizio M Series Quantum (model 558-G1). I plugged it in & one...
I have a 4K Vizio I bought a few years ago. No complaints but today, I noticed a faint flickering on the left side. It’s a rectangular shape the brightens briefly and drops to normal. When I put up a static image, I can see the dark rectangular area. I’m wonder if the pixels are dying. Any thoughts?
I just picked up this Mill Creek set. I had vague memories of the show from childhood and bought season 1 a few years ago. Nothing groundbreaking but a nice show. A nostalgia trip.
I bought this complete set because season 2 was pretty expensive. I’ve only taken a casual look at the set but...
This may be a tough one. I remember a children's art show that aired in the 70's & 80's and find anything about it. I feel like it aired on PBS as the segments seemed short. I would guess it was 15 minutes long. We didn't have that many channels so it had to be PBS. I always called it "The...
This is....a pretty awkward & disgusting question to ask. I was a child in the 70's. I often played in the background while my mother watched tv. Every so often I'd look up. I remember a person, I think a man, being in a courtroom. I think it was a courtroom. All I remember is seeing the person...
I had never heard of this show but after I bought the 70's cop shows I was familiar with, I decided to pick this up. I'd seen some clips on YouTube & was intrigued. Absolutely loved what I've watched so far! I know there's only one season so I'm taking my time. For those that have seen the rest...
I'm in the learning stages so bear with me. I know it's important to put money toward quality speakers & good CD player. How important is the receiver? Will music sound better depending on the receiver? I'm mostly interested in a dedicated music system rather than home theater right now.
I've only recently been looking into audio equipment so I apologize if I say something ignorant. I have the Pioneer BS22 speakers & they sound pretty good to me. They're set up in a fairly small room & provide plenty of sound for my needs. However, there's always the itch to improve.
Would a...
Excuse my babble in advance. Possessor of limited knowledge here.
After years of sd TV, I finally had the cash to buy a 42 inch Panasonic Plasma (tc-p42c2) in 2010. Maybe not the best tv out there but very pleasing to my eyes. Best I've ever owned! The other day it just shut down. I guess...
I'm pretty late to discuss this show. All the threads I checked have been archived. Anyway, I've recently started buying this show. I came in around season 3 back in the 80's & really enjoyed the series. I remember hearing the name & knowing it was a detective show & thinking it would be more...
I've always loved the films of the 70's. I was a child then so part of it is nostalgia. Mostly it's because of the quality of work being done. Slightly smaller scale & more personal. I've seen most of the big name movies like Godfather, French Connection & Taxi Driver. Lately I've discovered...
I'm on a 70's kick & am looking to build a collection of movies. I've never seen "The Candidate" starring Robert Redford but hear good things about it. I noticed there's no widescreen. Anyone have any knowledge about that? Also, any opinions on the movie itself?
Unlikely I know but I would love old sports events to be released. NBA games, football games, boxing matches. There's a bootleg market out there for many events but I'd love official releases. Things like Ali fights I'd love on DVD!
